My son-in-law’s employer (a big outfit, you’d recognize the name) is cutting their office space by 50% in favor of work at home based on the experience of 2020.
I live at small but popular ski area in rural Idaho and the change this year is very apparent. It appears many who can work remotely and are smart, have rented locally for months and are ripping off their employers. They are all here every single morning, every day of the week and leave by noon to get on line and work. I kind of respect them because from my observations they are all very good skiers and have take full advantage of the situation.
Corporations are still doing remote work? What a scam.

Any job that can be done remotely will be done in India for a fraction of the price.
There have been measurable productivity increases and massive cost reductions that have come from remote work. Which is what a lot of people like me in IT have been saying for decades.
anyone got the non paywall link?
“Corporations are still doing remote work?”

My wife has been working remotely for years. All she needs is a phone and Internet access.

It works well and I am far more productive at home than in any office.
California is notorious for chasing leavers for taxes. They tried to collect California taxes on an Arizona man who only had a few clients IN California.
YOU will still be an employee-—whether in a base office or at home. PAYROLL taxes will apply to whomever is paying the salary/wages.
